And yet.....

Something i had read way back in my college days..

I never gave u flowers,
No carnations, no red roses.
I never brought u candies,
or chocolates in pretty boxes.

I never called at odd hours,
To murmur sweet nothings.
I called u not pet names,
No 'dearest' nor 'honey' nor 'darling'.

I never took u for long drives,
Nor to movies or the theatres.
There never were any parties,
Filled with fun and laughter.

I sent u no cards or letters,
Filled with words so loving,
Nor any surprise gifts,
Wrapped up and sending out glitters.

There were no candlelight dinners,
Or romantic ruptured evenings.
No long walks on the beaches,
Nor a remarkable sunbathing.

And yet, I know, I love u,
Deep and with passion.
I know, I know that i love u,
In my own dear quiet fashion.
